Here are the latest review from readers of My Life, My Soul - Surviving, Healing And Thriving After An Abusive Relationship - Part 1: Surviving

“. . . My Life, My Soul" is a unique combination of storytelling and educating. This would be a good book for professionals, parents and survivors to use as a way to see how a life story fits into the analytical, clinical detailed description of abuse.” Jennifer Ann Bowers, Survivor

From the moment I started reading this book, I could not put it down. I read it entirely, cover to cover in one sitting. When I finished, all I could say was, "Wow!" It captured my senses as though I was living that nightmare with Ivette. I felt every pain, hit, punch, kick, frustration, and incidence of betrayal – especially from her mother. I cried when her little one died, and hurt for her daughter Victoria as though I was witnessing my own mother’s abuse through her eyes. God is truly with Ivette, and saved her for “such a time as this” – to speak out against domestic violence and abuse.

If you are raising a teenage daughter – or son – counseling teens about abuse, or a teen hiding the abuse from your family and friends, this book is for you. Ivette’s true story is powerful, engaging, and needful for those who do not truly understand the dynamics of domestic violence – it is often complicated. After reading this book, never again will you ask, “Why doesn’t she leave?”
